Installation¶
Using pip (or …)¶
| Category: | Stable version |
|---|---|
| Precondition: | pip (or setuptools) is installed |
Execute the following command to install behave with pip:
pip install behave
To update an already installed behave version, use:
pip install -U behave
As an alternative, you can also use easy_install to install behave:
easy_install behave # CASE: New installation.
easy_install -U behave # CASE: Upgrade existing installation.
Hint
See also pip related information for installing Python packages.
Using a Source Distribution¶
After unpacking the behave source distribution, enter the newly created directory “behave-<version>” and run:
python setup.py install
